    I checked and the word antifa.com is not prohibited in the this forum.

    Had Antifa been a prohibited word and a deliberate effort was made to add spaces in an effort to get around a prohibited word, it would have had dire consequences for anyone attempting it.

    Just a friendly heads up to anyone who might be considering doing such a thing.

    Any website can auto direct to any other website. Means nothing. Maybe antifi got hijacked by a hacker with a sense of humor?

    mark christian is this list you speak of available to regular forum members so we can be sure to not mess up?

    No, it is not even available to Nunn, myself, or to Sr. Moderator MontanaJoe, who is currently acting as an admin. Once upon a time in a forum far far away, the admins in the forum controlled the "bad word Filter" adding or removing words as we saw fit. Those were good times 😎

    Then, with the arrival of this current forum, the word filter fell into the hands of the suits at GBHQ, and darkness covered the forum. Now, if Nunn, myself or MontanaJoe want a word edited out or added, we have to go through channels and make a request. After asking several times for access to this sacred list, and being denied every time, I've resolved to live with it.

    The only way I can check the status of a word now is to type in the questionable word and post it. If it comes out "clean" then I simply delete my post (I can do that, although members can't). If the word comes up "dirty", I delete my post and we deal with it quickly.
